Beauty products that make us look and feel good while doing good for the planet can't be beat. When it comes to skincare, haircare and makeup, how products make us feel is just as important as how they impact the environment.

Nowadays, there are so many beauty and skincare brands that are committed to being better for the environment. In fact, Sephora has made finding those brands a lot easier with a dedicated section for products that are both good for your skin and eco-friendly. You'll notice that some of these products have a Clean at Sephora, which means they're made without products that are known to be harmful and they also use responsible packaging, among other things. Products with the Clean at Sephora seal are all great to add to your routine, but those aren't the only ones. 

Ulta also has their Conscious Beauty section which lists all the clean beauty brands they carry like Coola, NUDESTIX and Treslúce Beauty. Another source for clean beauty is The Detox Market, which carries brands like ILIA, Kosas and more.

All of Biossance's clean, effective and transformative skincare products start with sugarcane-derived squalane oil, like this Squalane + Omega Repair Deep Hydration Moisturizer. 

Biossance uses patented technology to convert renewable sugarcane into squalane oil, which is not only hydrating and good for the skin, but also saves 2 million sharks per year from poaching.

Not only is the brand Leaping Bunny certified, but it also has an EWG-Verification, which bolsters their commitment to avoiding non-toxic chemicals in all their formulas.

Tata Harper is a luxury skincare brand that only uses the best organic ingredients found all across the globe. According to the brand, every product they make is 100% natural and completely biodegradable. Their Regenerating Exfoliating Cleanser is a great product to try. It's perfect for every day use and will work to buff and polish to give you smooth, radiant skin. 

Merit is a beauty brand that specializes in minimalist beauty and creates products that are safe for the body, skin and planet. According to the brand, they've also aimed to eliminate the use of virgin material in their packaging as much as possible.

ILIA is a beauty brand that works with Pact Collective to "recycle the hard-to-recycle." Shoppers can mail in up to 10 empty beauty products per month from ILIA or any other brand, and Pact Collective will break it down responsibly so it doesn't end up in a landfill. If you want to try the brand, we recommend the customer-fave Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40 Foundation or the Multi-Stick Cream Blush + Lip Tint.

According to the brand, they collaborate with local botanists and farmers to carefully harvest wild plants, then add them to clinical ingredients that are effective for the skin.

The magic of Alpyn Beauty's latest launch is in the natural ingredients. The leave-on liquid exfoliator utilizes borage extract, 2% salicylic acid, vitamin C and tremella mushrooms to unclog pores, soothe, hydrate and protect the skin from damage. The borage extract and tremella mushrooms in particular help maintain the skin's natural pH balance.
